2 Boxes Need Repair, Have Aladdin Chip

So here's my situation,

 

My 1.6 burned out about two months ago now. Trusty system, but now it's doing the on/off three times frag thing.

 

For 10 bucks I bought a 1.0 Xbox. It however, didn't have a hard drive in it. Error 7. The man gave me back my money and let me keep the Xbox because he didn't know it was lacking a hard drive.

 

So, I have these two boxes. My 1.6 has an 80 gig drive.

 

I received in the mail an Aladdin XT Plus 2.

 

What can I use this chip for to get either of these boxes running?

Can I simply plug the Aladdin chip onto the 1.0 board?

 

Modding the 1.6 is a bit ridiculous, and I am not sure if the chip will repair the system anyway.

 

I can't find any info on using the Aladdin chip on a 1.0 board, but with that unit NOT having a hard drive I cannot tsop flash it, so if I can boot it via the Aladdin chip and the then set it up I am PERFECTLY FINE with that as a solution.

 

Looking for as little hogwash as possible.

 

 

Thanks for your thoughts.

The I link the D0 to ground like this pic and use the alternative point as it is bigger.

Then link the BT to pin 2 (ground ) like this

Plug the chip on the pin header and you should be good to go.

Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Excellent and thank you.

Yes that purple logo is what I see online.

 

I haven't opened up the Xbox yet because i don't currently have a drive to put into it, but as long as I know I can at least get it to boot from optical drive with this chip then that makes me feel better.
